Fredrick Douglass Fredrick Douglass Fredrick Douglass In the novel, An American Slave, by Fredrick Douglass, he describes an event where he was getting taught the alphabet by Mrs. Auld and wanted to continue to learn how to read and write. First she taught him the alphabet and then after he learned it, Mrs. Auld helped him spell words that consisted with three of four letters. While he was still learning, Mr. Auld found out about this and told Mrs. Auld to stop teaching him. He said it was unlawful and unsafe to teach a slave to read. Mr. Auld also said that if Douglass learned to read, it would do no good, cause a great deal of harm and make him both discontented and unhappy. When Douglass heard this, he was determined to learn to read and write so he bribed some white boys with bread to teach him. He learned how to write using Thomas Auld’s copybooks for practice. The more he learned, the more unhappy became because of what he found out about slaves. In one event, he learned about the abolitionists from the newspapers and two Irish dockworkers told him to run away to the North, where people would help him.
